The Dallas Symphony Orchestra presents a varied program sure to please a wide array of listeners: beginning with the DSO premier of renowned American composer Christopher Rouse’s tone poem Iscariot, on to Beethoven’s essential Piano Concerto No. 4 and closing with Mendelssohn’s “Scottish” Symphony (No. 3). Suggestive, at varying degrees, of jealousy, anger and melancholy, Rouse’s Iscariot serves as a hearty first course to the evening’s centerpiece, Beethoven’s heady fourth piano concerto, the final piece of music for which the master served as soloist. Esteemed pianist Garrick Ohlsson takes the solo slot on this occasion, with Joshua Weilerstein making his DSO conducting debut. Performances take place at 7:30 pm Thursday and Friday, and at 2:30 pm Sunday. Tickets start at $19. Find more information at mydso.com.
Fridays, 7:30 p.m.; Sun., April 12, 2:30 p.m. Starts: April 10. Continues through April 10, 2015
